What of Financial Governance?

Celebrating the Empowerment of Self-Economy

The wisdom of governance has been cultivated and uprightly expressed by Afrikan souls since the earliest of times. Concerned less with some of the contemporary meanings that are encompassed by the term ‘politics’, governance for this primary people of creation was self-governance that enshrined rightful order in emanation of their natural norm of pinnacle civilisation. For grand civilisation, upright governance prevailed throughout the various levels of the self, each in service of its greater context from the levels of person to nation and beyond. Here, the wisdom of governance naturally guided life activities for the benefit of the immediate sphere and to the advancement of the greater good. Take for example, the natural functioning of self-economy. Wisdom of governance would inform its establishment, structure, operation and upright rules of engagement for optimal flourishing of this soul people. By extension, the definition and use of its commodities such as money were also necessarily subject to such guiding wisdom.

In the contemporary period the term financial governance has been posited in relation to monetary operations. According to a mainstream source the term financial governance is described thus:  

“Financial governance refers to the way a company collects, manages, monitors and controls financial information. Financial governance includes how companies track financial transactions, manage performance and control data, compliance, operations, and disclosures”.

Given the interruptions and disruptions of the Maafa of recent centuries where Afrikan civilised living and its natural norm of self-economy flourishing have been set upon in destructive ways, much life activity has been skewed into disorder. Much by way of stratagem has been deployed by others that mean the Afrikan ill to derail this primary people from their ageless continuum of wisdom governance.

So, what does financial governance then mean to this soul people in the now? Present conditions are for multitudes of souls far less-than their natural norm of thriving. The upright and imperative thrust of self-governance has been detrimentally substituted with ‘politics’ and ‘political’ wranglings of others.   Afrikan souls are in many ways subject exclusively to the companies and company products of others in service of foreign ‘economies’. Indeed, whole countries have themselves been described as ‘corporations’. Thus, the way financial information is collected, managed and controlled is ringfenced to serve best interests outside the Afrikan self.

Surely then, wisdom dictates that flourishing Afrikans are Afrikans who have handles of governing themselves in service of their highly civilised norm whether at the financial level or otherwise. Only Afrikan souls can recover, restore and revitalise themselves in self-knowingness and engage in their ascension of rightful order. From whatever station, level or status contributory steps of progress can be made – however large or small. At the same time, measures taken to safeguard the self from contaminants of ill, self-destructive wrongdoing and the like are key.  

Informative for Afrikan ascension gleaned by Afrikan souls themselves surely ought to be the part of the crop that feeds their everlasting continuum of wisdom. Of course, grand civilisation has never been the stuff of happenstance. Informed upright self-determined effort on the part of the Afrikan is surely a progressive must.    

Ujamaa Kiburi Siku is a wonderful part of the spiritual-cultural observance calendar of the Universal Royal Afrikan Nation. It takes place in the first week of June marking the time of significant occurrence both on the continent of Afrika and in the diaspora concerning Afrikan economy. Ujamaa Kiburi Siku as with the other observances on the Afrikan cultural calendar is just that – an observance.
